Greatest Middleweight Ever

[Fox McCloud]

it's very close, between haggler and robinson could be a toss-up but
haggler was the most consistent pressure fighter

Atta boy.

I picked other, because I'm an idiot... I was thinking about someone who never even fought at middleweight, because he beat Harry Greb a whole bunch.

Well anyways, the best light heavyweight is Gene Tunney... that's where I was going with that.

Well Hagler would have destroyed any welter from any era, but that is probably because he would have a significant weight advantage on all of them. At least you didn't pick Gene Tunney for greatest Middleweight ever.

Who is #1 all-time at MW?

Suppose all you want, at the end of the day, Hagler proved in his prime he was unstoppable.

Best chin, Most tenacious, one of the longest reigns, never down(I know of the slip). And fought Duran,Hearns,Mugabi,Roldan,Leonard and a slew of top notch pros.


No one gets close in my opinion. Robinson at 2.


As far as overall ability, Robinson was more well rounded, but at middle and prime, I'd bet the farm on Hagler by late stoppage everytime.

The man was a beast!!!!

How can no one get close when you consider Monzon beat better MIDDLEWEIGHTS than Hagler?

[pesticid]

I pick Hagler but I haven't seen much of Monzon. Historians say he was just as good.

Hagler was extremely well-rounded and versatile.

Since Robinson never got stopped other than due to heat exhaustion in 200 fights, I can't really pick anyone his size over Robinson by KO.

Robinson was great at adapting in rematches, I can definitely see Hagler winning the first fight and Robinson taking the rematch.

One look at Harry Greb's story, and you will be amazed.

one look at his shadow boxing, and you will be amazed too

lol yeah while theres no footage of him that i've seen he did have a good career according to his record

I said Hopkins ever since he had the loss to Roy he ruled the division but then Jermain "Lucky" Taylor came in and took his crown but he ruled it for a while and he did something Ray Robinson couldnt do move all da way up to become Light Heavy Champ
